I attempted to submit this bug report via the online form, but that failed
("Failed to send your message. Please try later or contact the
administrator by another method.")
Bind, configured with "dlz postgresql", successfully connects to the
database, but crashes (or corrupts the heap, randomly) on the very first
query submitted, if the "find zone" query receives a "permission denied"
error from Postgresql.
The problem goes away when I correct the permissions on the table. :)
However, BIND should not crash or corrupt its heap on a database query
error. I have not reviewed the DLZ postgresql driver code, but I suspect
that the error handler needs some tender loving care. :) Stack trace
included (see below):
CREATE TABLE dns_records
(
zone text,
host text,
ttl integer,
type text,
mx_priority integer,
data text,
resp_person text,
serial integer,
refresh integer,
retry integer,
minimum integer,
expire integer
)
WITH (
OIDS=FALSE
);
ALTER TABLE dns_records
OWNER TO pgsql;
(no additional grants, and BIND is configured to connect as the user/role
"dns", which does NOT have "select" permission on the table (yet)).
Relevant bind config:
# http://bind-dlz.sourceforge.net/postgresql_example.html
# http://bind-dlz.sourceforge.net/postgresql_driver.html
dlz "postgres zone" {
database "postgres 2
{host=REDACTED port=5432 dbname=dns user=dns}
{select zone from dns_records where zone = '$zone$'}
{select ttl, type, mx_priority, case when lower(type)='txt' then '\"' ||
data
|| '\"' else data end from dns_records where zone = '$zone$' and
host = '$record$'
and not (type = 'SOA' or type = 'NS')}
{select ttl, type, mx_priority, data, resp_person, serial, refresh,
retry, expire,
minimum from dns_records where zone = '$zone$' and (type = 'SOA' or
type='NS')}
{select ttl, type, host, mx_priority, data, resp_person, serial,
refresh, retry, expire,
minimum from dns_records where zone = '$zone$'}
{select zone from xfr_table where zone = '$zone$' and client =
'$client$'}";
};
Below is a stack trace, followed by other relevant config bits.
